Acousto-optical analog of the Borman effect in semiconductors
Levin V. M., Mazur M. M., Pustovoit V. I.
The Bragg diffraction of electromagnetic radiation by an absorption grating, which is produced in semiconductors by a high-intensity acoustic wave because of a redistribution of free carriers, is examined. High diffraction efficiency and a large decrease of the total absorption in the medium (Borman effect) are demonstrated.
